Just over a month away from turning 39, Gael Monfils is clear that the end of his career is getting closer every day. Last night, after being defeated in the first round of the Toronto Masters 1000, the Frenchman dared to bid farewell to the tournament in the post-match press conference. At least, bidding farewell to this venue.

"This is the last time I will play in Toronto [...] It will be two years before playing here again, so I practically won't be able to play it; I think I will be too old by then, that's why I believe this is my last time here. I thought about it as I left the court, it's a shame, but this is the last time I play in this place," stated the Frenchman, defeated in three sets by the Chilean Tomás Barrios.
